Sodium bicarbonate or carbonate? IVBy c hill from Ft. Worth, Texas on November 18, 2006 Category: Sodium bicarbonate On Nov. 15, I had eaten something that upset my stomach. I regertated the entire portion eaten--none digested, shortly after consuming . I am a diabetic, so I experienced insulin shock--still concious my co workers called an ambulance. I refused to go to the hospital but they all INSISTED. All I needed was some juice or cola. After being put into the ambulance and an IV started, I began to feel very very bad, hot and with convulsing. The hospital ordered glucose but the peramedics gave me SODIUM CARBONATE OR BICARBONATE IV. I did enter into a deeper shock until the doctor discovered what they had given me. NOW, I am swollen from my legs down, my blood pressure is high and my heart feels abnormal. I have been on a low sodim diet before. I am aware that this is probably serious, what can I do or should I do? I will not be able to see a doctor until next month. Any advice and or help you can offer will be kindly appreciated....
